My solution to racial disparities

The ‘Reverend’ Jesse Jackson has been in the pulpit again. He sadly informs us that “a new study released by the Institute on Assets and Social Policy revealed that even when African-Americans had a good education and well-paying jobs, they could not achieve the wealth of their white peers in the workforce. As a result the wealth disparity between white and black households has more than quadrupled, regardless of income bracket. Disparities are driven by racial discrimination because civil rights laws have all but been abandoned over the past decade.”.How many of you realised that – that such wealth disparities are driven by racial discrimination because civil rights laws have all but been abandoned over the past decade?.I didn’t, but now that I do know, by God I'm going to do something about it. And after weeks of feverish research and brainstorming, I believe I've solved the problem with the following Four-Point Plan..Point 1: We know, because everyone tells us, that if blacks and whites mix freely they’ll get on like a house on fire (maybe not the best analogy, but anyway). However, we also know, again because everyone tells us, that whites – due to their racism – do everything in their power to avoid mixing with blacks. So here’s my solution. Why not transfer black kids (you can't start early enough!) to white schools and whites to black schools? We could call this ‘Proactive Translocational Integration’, although that's a bit of a mouthful. What about ‘Coaching’, or even Bussing?.Point 2: We know that blacks suffer low self-esteem. This derives of course from the legacy of slavery and generations of contempt from whites. So why not build their self-esteem by denigrating everything about whiteness and pumping up everything about blackness?.For example we could have something like, I dunno, Black History Hour every year, wherein black accomplishments in science, engineering and culture can be celebrated. Now I had thought about Black History Day, and even Black History Week, but, despite my best efforts was unable to find enough material. In fact, if truth be known, I found it hard to find enough to celebrate in for even one hour..But there’s a way around that too – and all in a good cause, you understand. What I have in mind here is to gently finess the actual story. So for example Shaquille worked in the lab that developed the atom bomb, sweeping the floor and bringing in the coffee. We needn’t refer to this, just claim that he ‘was part of the team at Los Alamos’. The opportunities are endless, well, maybe enough for a full Black History Day. And, just to be sure, we could make it a criminal offence for anyone (any white person) to take the piss out of such achievements..Now as we’re constantly reminded, blacks are always portrayed unfavourably in the media. I mean, when do you ever see a black character in a Hollywood movie, and in the odd time you do aren’t they always shown as dumb, violent, thieving welfare bums? Of course. I suggest that they be portrayed as doctors and scientists, and generally wise, honest and noble.

Do you ever see a black in an advertisement? Ok, they’re only 13% of the US population, but you’d imagine that just once in a while the privileged whites would nod in their direction and make a token inclusion? So that's my third point, try to give blacks some favourable coverage in the MSM, and, on the odd occasion that they do step out of line, don't highlight the race of the perpetrator as is always done now..And now to my fourth and final and most important breakthrough idea. It’s one that will address Reverend Jesse’s concerns, and at a stroke end the disparities of achievement. My plan is this. To compensate for the legacy of slavery, give blacks preferential treatment when it comes to gaining entry to prestige colleges and promotions at work. Even if they’re almost totally unqualified, give them the jobs! By definition, this must end all the inequality! I suggest that this initiative be called Positive Discrimination……. or Affirmative Action, or some such thing.

Now I realise that my last two suggestions are a little bit crazy. After all, why would whites willingly allow themselves to be queue-jumped at every phase of economic and educational activity, see their better qualified children passed over due to the colour of their skin, their race denigrated at every turn, the taxes going to compensate for what they’d see as black social incontinence?.So yes, it’s a big ask. And achieving it would require a degree of social and mind control beyond the imagination of even a Stalin or a Pol Pot. Hardly going to get that in the Land Of The Free now, are we?

Sounds like some nifty ideas there Savant. Maybe there is also a problem of numbers at play. Perhaps if "white" countries encouraged large scale immigration from African countries to balance the numbers it will work better. What do you say?

off topic savant, years back while a copper in chicago, my partner and i acting silly asked a kaffair if he knew two guys named hitler and stalin who were known to be in the neighborhood creating havoc, said kaffair said that yes they hung out by the tots playlot after dark down by the swings and they drank out of brown bags and sold a little weed, hmmmmm. true story.

Old Chicago copper - I totally believe you. I remember, many years ago, when Ireland began to import black basketball players from the US. I was in discussion with this guy from Tuskegee (he cheerfully admitted he was here mainly to 'screw white chicks')

But I was fascinated at the opportunity to learn at first hand what a black from the town had to say about the eponymous airmen, experiment and institute. He'd never heard of any of them!!!Equally amazing as your story, and equally true.

Brilliant. You, sir, are the Jonathan Swift of the 21st Century. Your satire is simply brilliant. I am hard-copying this one into a writing album I keep. (Not to worry...you will be given full ackowledgement.) It's that good.

Irish Savant, you really got me thinking on how we can end racism in our society. Here are some more ideas:

We need to make up for past criminal justice inequities by giving more jail time to Whites. Let's pass laws which place additional criminal penalties on any kind of crime committed by White people against black. While we are at it, how about if also we make it an offense for a White person to refer to a black person by any kind of term which the black person considers to be denigrating?

To make up for a lack of minority power on the universities, allow black students to organize groups which can agitate in their interests, while at the same time forbidding White students to do the same type of organizing for themselves. Then we will no longer have to worry about those terrible racists who dominate American campuses.

Find some country in Africa, toss out all the White oppressors, place a black Marxist insurgent leader as chief of government, then seize White owned farmlands and hand them over to blacks. This is sure to create a paradise of human rights and economic progress.

Wow, just think of the utopia we could create if we only put our minds to it! How come none of this stuff has been tried before?

I am well aware of that one Savant. My best friend has just emigrated to the UK as our country is falling apart like a leper on a square wheeled bicycle. Apparently, if Winston saw London today he would probably have invited Adolf and friends over and teamed up. We were joking about my mate feeling right at home there as parts of the place are like South Africa replete with gun toting gangsters originating all over Africa.

Heard John O Shea talking on Hook's show this evening. Hook said that liberals like himself and O Shea were for equality in Zimbabwe but wasn't it terrible that the kind of fellow who took over from the whites was a tyrant. O Shea replied that we just need quality people running these countries and it doesn't matter whether they're black yellow white or purple as long as they do the right thing. This guy has obviously spent a lot of time in many third world countries given his line of work. I don't understand why he can't see.

off topic savant, is it just me or did the woman who played the vetranarian on ballykissangle look at times like a man and sometimes a woman. enquiring chicago minds await your response with mixed emotions,

Black History Month in February and can you guess what happened next?"Dat rayciss'" cause there are only 28 days in February to tell of the marvellous achievements of those responsible for Detroit's detroiting.

In other news, scientist discovered last year that caucasians are part neanderthal. They also confirmed it this year. google it. Based on the paper caucasians share 9% haplotype similarity to Neanderthals. Thus caucasians﻿ are 91% human.﻿ Which is not too bad, but still not quite 100% human. Science hasn't been too kind to white people lately.

Quote: Sub-Saharan Africans actually have more archaic admixture. The difference is that it came not from Neanderthals but from archaic groups within Africa. About 13% of the sub-Saharan gene pool comes from an earlier expansion of pre-modern hominins that occurred c. 111,000 years ago"

"modern humans can be entirely split into two groups: (i) a group of "pure" Afrasians which includes all non-Africans, and (ii) a group of Afrasian-Paleoafricans which includes all non-Caucasoid Africans."http://evoandproud.blogspot.com/2010/05/archaic-admixture-in-africans.html

"CHICAGO -- Last September, Bruce Lahn, a professor of human genetics at the University of Chicago, stood before a packed lecture hall and reported the results of a new DNA analysis: He had found signs of recent evolution in the brains of some people, but not of others"http://online.wsj.com/public/article/SB115040765329081636-T5DQ4jvnwqOdVvsP_XSVG_lvgik_20060628.html?mod=blogs

You in Ireland better do something now or you will forever regret it. Since multiculturalism has taken hold here in the U.S., I have personally lost most of my nieces and nephews to the barbarians through mixing. The older folks, worthless American trash that they are, do nothing but watch T.V. and complain about Obama. Most of the young couples at work are mixed race, and they are beginning to breed. The young men are as incompetent as they come, but they work cheap, so they keep getting hired. Do not underestimate the stupidity of young white girls and the greed of the corporations. These easily-fooled girls may eventually "wake up" but only after it's too late.

here in boston/cambridge they are all ready implementing all of your plans (thank god you're joshing i hope) and they still scream adn threaten to go an a rampage if they don't get what they want, which will never be enough since the mind of teh negro is primitive and savage, gibs me mo mo mo

just think there's about a billion of them in africa and tehy're all headed our way
